ABSTRACT:
The subject invention provides a bow string release mechanism that can be outfitted with various types of interchangeable sear heads. The release mechanism generally comprises a sear head and a universal base, within which is mounted a trigger, a trigger arm linked to the trigger, and a spring-loaded locking yoke. The standard elements of all sear heads include a spring-loaded activation shaft and tabs which are receivable within notches provided in the base. An interchangeable sear head is attached to the base by fitting the tabs of the head into the notches of the base and rotating the head relative to the base until the yoke locks the head into place. Although selectively removable, the sear head, once locked into position on the release mechanism, is fully rotatable relative to the base. A sear head is removed from the base by releasing the yoke from engagement with the sear head and rotating the sear head relative to the base until the tabs and the notches align.
